I also guide students in developing a balanced list of "best-fit" Safety, Match, and Reach colleges. I work with all types of students, including with student-athletes, LD Students, and First-Generation Students.

Approved subjects

In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
